What is “the Dragon” (aka “the Tail of the Dragon”, “Deals Gap” and “Tale of the Dragon”)?The Dragon is a portion of US129 in Tennessee that features 318 curves in 11 miles. Riders and drivers from all over the world visit the Dragon in hopes of conquering its many twists and turns. Beginning just beyond Punkin Center where US129 and State Road 72 meet, the Dragon winds its way through a portion of the east Tennessee mountains and ends at the TN/NC state line. Beyond the state line lies Deals Gap, the Tail of the Dragon, Fontana Dam, Cherohala Skyway and many other points of interest.

My baby won best pic of the week! Im so glad you guys like my designs i do every year and include me in your favorites of the week. Im glad your giving the crazy guy on the bike a poster too, he was a strong competitor and it was pretty close there for a little while. I was also wondering how far back do you archives go and how much does a poster usually run? This year was my 7th MINIs on the Dragon but 6th year driving my car, i thought it might be neat if i could get a poster for every year. Thanks again!

I checked out all the other guys taking photos and yours were by far the highest quality, biggest selection, and fastest response. I will 100% be a returning customer and should have not wasted my time with the other sites!

Hello,

This photo is amazing. So amazing that the file size is too big for Facebook. Is it possible for me to save it at a lower resolution so I can upload it to Facebook? Thanks!

Hi Dave,

Just wanted to tell you how much we like the pictures you took of us on The Dragon during the TN State H.O.G. Rally this year. The quality is outstanding! It’s just so neat that you provide such an interesting and unique service for anyone who rides or drives The Dragon.
Have a great day,

As a serious amateur photographer who has done little leagues, weddings, portraits and some action for the past 35 years, I want to commend you on a job well done. the focus, depth of field and exposure was right on the money. I realize that you do this every-day but there are so many out there that never get it right. You sir got it right and I am glad that you were there to take the pictures of me and my mustang. If I had known you were at that curve I may have been a bit more aggressive but you captured the moment well. Rick Bell 69 year old that still enjoys a twisting road.

Thanks again.

Hi David,
You will note that we are returning customers: we first purchased your shots in 2012. We have shown them to countless other friends and riders; they love them! So, we were glad to see you yesterday and even happier when we saw our pictures.
Everyone talks about Killboy, but he didn't even have our pictures up yet. You sent us an e-mail (on time, on target) telling me our shots were there. Thanks for that as well. We are very happy to deal with you!
Take care out there on the Dragon and we will see you next time we are here!!

Thanks, Dave. You guys are easily the best photographers of the bunch on “the Dragon”.
